Box Score

Marietta, Ga. - The Freed-Hardeman (3-0) women's basketball team traveled to Marietta, Ga. to take on the University of Mobile (1-1) as part of the Life U Classic. 

Jenna Satterly hit a jumper on the first offensive possession of the game for the Lady Lions, followed by an Aubrey Blankenship 3-pointer, an Ella Wheeler steal to layup, and a Satterly layup off a Wheeler steal, to take an early 9-3 lead. In a span of 73 seconds, Lilly Kee scored on three consecutive offensive possessions, and FHU held an 18-8 lead. Both teams went through a scoring drought, before Jocy May knocked down two from the charity stripe and Maddie Kirk with a layup. The first quarter ended with FHU on top 24-15.

First two possessions of the second quarter resulted in five points for the Lady Lions, with Ally Weathers scoring a bucket and Satterly hitting a long ball. Kee hit a layup from Weathers at the 6:43 mark, and neither team scored again until the 3:36 mark, when Satterly answered with a layup.  From there, the Rams ended the quarter with a 7-2 run, to take the game to halftime with the Lady Lions up 39-27.

The Lady Lions would reverse that and started the second half on a 14-0 run spanning over six minutes. In that run, Kee scored 7 points, Satterly 4 points and 2 steals, Weathers 2 free throws and May a free throw. May would add an and-one at the 3-minute mark and to end the quarter, Kee scored another bucket for her ninth of the third, and a 62-32 lead entering the fourth.

Cruising in the fourth quarter, the Lady Lions were able to finish the victory by a score of 75-46. In the quarter, freshman Keely Webb was able to score her first points in a Lady Lion uniform, knocking down a deep ball. Jocy May was able to add six points in the final quarter to get her into double figures for the first time this season.

Lilly Kee led the scoring for FHU with 20, shooting 9-for-10 from the field. Satterly added 15, and May with 14. Ally Weathers was 2 points shy of a double-double, scoring 8 points to go with her 11 rebounds, and 6 blocks!
